The Honourable Chrystia Freeland, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance have confirmed that the Government of Canada has delivered to provinces and territories an additional $2 billion Canada Health Transfer top-up.
This top-up will support provincial and territorial governments in reducing backlogs and responding to urgent pressures in emergency rooms, operating rooms, and pediatric hospitals, and is part of the federal government’s $198.3 billion plan to strengthen public health care in Canada.
The Canada Health Transfer top-up builds on $6.5 billion in one-time top-ups that the federal government provided to provinces and territories during the pandemic in 2020, 2021, and 2022 to help address extreme pandemic-driven pressures on our public health care system. This top-up is also in addition to the $49.4 billion in Canada Health Transfer funding provided in 2023-24. All Canada Health Transfer payments are allocated on a per-capita basis.
